Classic Sports Scenes from those Non-Sports Related Movies!!

Sports tend to find their ways into movies even when that movie isn't about sports.  Here are our top 10 scenes from movies totally unrelated to sports:

#10
The Big Lebowski
Jesus and Bowling = awesome



#9
Meet the Parents
This scene reshaped my teen years, thank you Ben Stiller




#8
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Finally saw this movie in college.  Go to about the 6 minute mark to see the real stuff.  Watch for a young Nicholson obviously but more so, Danny Devito and Christopher Lloyd.  Awesome film overall too.



#7
The Social Network
Another overall great movie and the twins here lose this match adding to their dilemma of not getting any Facebook credit.



#6
The Cable Guy
As a kid, I thought this movie was a complete failure compared to Dumb & Dumber and Ace Ventura but now in my mid-20s, I can see this Carrey film as one of his better works.  Skinny Jack Black!



#5
Old School
I mean, man, what an epic scene. Vaughn and Ferrell at their finest.



#4
Wedding Crashers
Vaughn was on cruise control with films like Old School, Dodgeball, and Wedding Crashers. The gay son steals a line here but it's the young, still unknown Bradley Cooper doing the real damage, hilarious.



#3
Forrest Gump
Tom Hanks is just amazing. This scene sums up Forrest Gump.  Just run...




#2
Along Came Polly
I won't lie, this is ranked so high because it's a HUGE personal favorite of mine.  Philip Seymour Hoffman is one of the best in the business and this movie overall is just him doing great work.



#1
Good Will Hunting
Probably a little surprising eh? If you didn't know Good Will Hunting is a top 5 favorite movie of mine because Matt Damon is arguably my favorite actor. Robin Williams really gets you going in this.
